Chapter 28 Yang Fengyi and Lin Fengyi are here
Wen Lier rolled her eyes. Which eye of hers saw that she was so proud?
As Yang Xishan said, she didn't think His Highness really liked her.
Maybe it’s because they have been eating dishes as dignified as the Crown Princess and as beautiful as Yang Xishan for too long, and they want to change to a lighter dish.
She still has this self-awareness.
Lin Fujia smiled at Wen Li'er a little embarrassedly.
She probably also felt that her action of coming to the East Palace to intercept someone today was a bit strange, so she took the initiative to apologize to Wen Li'er.
"Sister Wen, I know I shouldn't be as shameless as Yang Xishan. But now, of the three of us serving as ministers, I'm the only one not sleeping with you. I was so anxious that I went to your palace to look for His Highness. Can you forgive me this time?"
Wen Li'er actually didn't care. If they could really intercept His Highness, it would mean that they were capable. Why should she be angry?
Wen Li'er took her hand and said with a smile, "Sister Lin, you're too serious. This isn't a big deal. Have you had dinner yet? How about sitting here and playing a couple of games of chess?"
When Lin Fujia heard Wen Li'er mention playing chess, her head was overwhelmed.
She said she felt a little sleepy tonight and wanted to go to bed early.
After saying that, he ran away in a hurry.
Wen Li'er felt so bad that everyone who could play chess with her had already run away...
As soon as Lin Fujia left, Nanny Qin gave Wen Li'er earnest advice.
"Master, there's no such thing as sisterhood in this palace. There's only vying for favor and maneuvering. Lin Fengyi looks harmless, but who knows what her true nature is like? For safety's sake, Master, it's best to stay away. Otherwise, you might be stabbed in the back without even realizing it."
Wen Li'er was silent for a moment.
In fact, her feelings towards Lin Fujia were always a little different.
After all, after entering the Eastern Palace, Lin Fujia was the first one to open her heart and speak to her and show her kindness.
"Mammy, I know that you shouldn't have the intention to harm others, but you must always be on guard against them. Just relax."
Nanny Qin was relieved when she saw that she really knew the truth.
…
Fuyao Palace.
When Xie Zhenrong heard about the prince's dinner at Wen Fengyi's, she was so angry that she cut the undergarment she was sewing for the prince into pieces.
Because she scolded Wen Fengyi, the prince summoned Wen Fengyi to sleep with him.
After serving the emperor in bed, Wen Fengyi was allowed to stay overnight in Yuqing Palace.
She punished Wen Fengyi to kneel for the whole morning, and His Highness went to Yaohua Palace three times a day, fearing that his precious child would have a lame leg.
No need to greet and you have to accompany me for dinner.
Xie Zhenrong felt that the prince was displeased with her and was slapping her in the face!
No, she has to go to the Cining Palace and ask the Empress Dowager to make the decision for her!
Nanny Zhuang hurriedly pulled the person back and tried to persuade him earnestly.
"Crown Princess, no. The Crown Prince has already told you, implicitly, not to bother the Empress Dowager by going to the Cining Palace for no reason."
Xie Zhenrong was so angry that she almost died.
After treating her like this, she is not allowed to complain to the Queen Mother?!
"Nurse, what do you think the Crown Prince is thinking? He's tired of the Emperor favoring his concubines over his wife, but what is he doing now? Isn't he just imitating the Emperor's ways?!"
Nanny Zhuang was really about to kneel down, and hurriedly went to cover Xie Zhenrong's mouth.
"My dear aunt, please don't say anything out loud. I'm afraid the prince will get angry with you if he hears you."
Xie Zhenrong's eyes turned red with grievance when she heard this.
Since she married the prince, she has managed the Eastern Palace in an orderly manner, putting the prince first in everything and the interests of the Eastern Palace as the greatest priority.
Even the Queen Mother praised her several times.
But what about the prince? He openly and secretly accused her of being too talkative!
If he does well enough and takes her sincerity into his heart, what can she say? !
Matron Zhuang sighed and whispered, "Crown Princess, it was the Empress Dowager who first proposed adding new people to the Eastern Palace. What's the point of you going to her? In the Empress Dowager's eyes, as long as those Fengyi can give the Crown Prince a child, inviting Your Highness to dinner is no big deal."
Besides, it’s not written in the palace rules that the prince cannot go to Fengyi or have meals with Fengyi.
How can it be said that favoring a concubine over destroying one's wife is such a serious matter?
If the prince really killed his wife one day, it couldn't be just like this.
Ugh!
Aunt Zhuang cursed three times in her heart.
Don’t let your imagination run wild, it’s a sin.
With the persuasion of Nanny Zhuang, Xie Zhenrong finally calmed down.
Yes, the nanny is right.
If it was because of this, she would run to the Queen Mother angrily to complain.
The Queen Mother would certainly think that she was ignorant and narrow-minded, and the Crown Prince would also be annoyed that she was not calm and dignified enough.
She will be the queen who rules the country in the future. How can she be so angry over a small matter like Fengyi?
Xie Zhenrong took out a string of Buddhist scriptures from his sleeve and fiddled with them quickly with his hands.
After a long time, I finally calmed down.
She opened her eyes and asked Madam Zhuang for advice.
"Nurse, what should I do next?"
Seeing that she had finally calmed down, Madam Zhuang breathed a sigh of relief.
"Crown Princess, you just need to always be considerate of His Highness and be a mistress who knows the big picture, is sensible, and knows when to advance and retreat. Only then will His Highness see your good qualities."
After hearing this, Xie Zhenrong felt a little sad.
Is she only fit to be a sensible mistress and not worthy of His Highness's love?
Originally, in the first year of their marriage, His Highness did not treat her like this.
There may not have been love at that time, but His Highness at least felt pity for her.
But why did they drift further and further apart in just over two years?
Xie Zhenrong tried hard to recall what caused them to become estranged.
That's right, because he didn't like her always asking questions about court affairs; he didn't like her always worrying about whether the position of crown prince would be taken away by Yang Guifei's son; he also didn't like her always telling him to please the emperor more and win over more court officials.
But she was clearly doing this for his own good, why couldn't he understand her painstaking efforts?
Nanny Zhuang watched the Crown Princess grow up, how could she not know what was in her mind?
She sighed deeply, her expression extremely serious.
"Crown Princess, if you still want to win His Highness's favor, you must learn to humble yourself and flatter him. Men, you know, have to face all kinds of dangers and deal with all kinds of complicated matters outside, which is exhausting. After returning to the inner court, naturally, you hope to have a gentle and considerate woman who understands your feelings. Crown Princess, if you could restrain your temper a little, be less assertive, rely on His Highness a little more, and show more weakness. Let His Highness see that you, his wife, are the one who understands and loves him the most."
Xie Zhenrong gritted his teeth and nodded.
She thought of the queen's current situation. She had the title of queen in the palace, but was nothing.
She didn't want to repeat the Queen's mistakes.
She wants power and she also wants the prince's favor!
Isn't it just to please men? She can do that too!
